Sweeping

The task: Sweep up the spilled hay in an approximately 4 sq ft area outside of Elvis’ cage.
The child: TB
The amount of time to complete the task: 10 minutes.

Yes, you read that correctly. It took TB approximately 10 minutes to sweep up a little spilled hay in an approximately 4 sq ft area. 10 minutes. Once he finally announced he had completed his task, I looked over at his handiwork. Hay still covered the floor.

Me: You didn’t get up all the hay.TB: You mean I’m supposed to get all of it up?
